    Oh look they resolved a dispute between a school and students without getting the police involved. Almost as if that college’s staff has read a book before

    I’m not sure how effective that Colleges approach was, did they at least try mobilizing the Irish National Guard, or sending in the Police for mass arrests?

      Ireland has a history of supporting Palestine due to both’s struggle against colonizers. Many Irish supported Palestinian independence from long before.

      I think it’s the first in Ireland. It’s a well respected university so very encouraging.
